AI is transforming both critical infrastructure protection and the threats facing it. This session will consider how AI can enhance threat detection, predictive maintenance, situational awareness, incident response and resilience planning, alongside emerging risks such as AI-enabled cyberattacks, automated exploitation, deepfakes and misinformation. Learn how organisations can assess and manage these opportunities and threats, establish effective governance and safeguards, and harness AI responsibly while avoiding new vulnerabilities, dependencies and resilience challenges.
